Hey guys, my chart roundup is back after a month out! I hope
you missed me.

Hot Country Songs remains oddly static at the top, with
Florida Georgia Line continuing their successful run at #1 with ‘Cruise’, which
also holds onto #1 on Country Digital Songs. What’s more, their most recent
single ‘Get Your Shine On’, has the top spot on Country Airplay, #7 on Country
Digital Songs and #5 on Hot Country Songs. Is there any chart this duo can’t
dominate? Turns out that chart is Top Country Albums, as Kenny Chesney’s ‘Life
On A Rock’ debuts at #1, while ‘Here’s To The Good Times’ trails at #5. The
lead single from Kenny’s new record, ‘Pirate Flag’, is at #8 on Hot Country
Songs and #4 on Country Airplay, nearing the top ten with #12 on Country
Digital Songs.

Darius Rucker is also doing well, his hit ‘Wagon Wheel’
remaining at #2 on Hot Country Songs and Country Digital Songs, and #3 on Country
Airplay. The same goes for Blake Shelton, hot on his heels with ‘Boys Round
Here’ (featuring Pistol Annies and friends) at #3 on both Hot Country Songs and
Country Digital Songs. He moves up to #9 on Country Airplay at a steady rise,
while his album ‘Based On A True Story…’ drops to #2 this week. His wife,
Miranda Lambert, sees ‘Mama’s Broken Heart’ retain its position at #4 on Hot
Country Songs, #5 on Country Digital Songs, and move up to the
anticipation-filled #2 spot on Country Airplay. Will she top the chart next
week?

Tim McGraw is also a key player on the charts, as his
collaboration with Taylor Swift and Keith Urban, ‘Highway Don’t Care’, holds
onto #6 on Hot Country Songs, while it sits at #4 on Country Digital Songs and
#6 on Country Airplay. ‘Two Lanes of Freedom’, Tim’s latest album, is at #14.
Luke Bryan is also rising up the charts with ‘Crash My Party’, at #6 on Country
Digital Songs, moving up to #9 on Hot Country Songs, and #17 on Country
Airplay. In addition, Hunter Hayes’ ‘I Want Crazy’ is right behind him,
reaching #10 on Hot Country Songs, #8 on Country Digital Songs and #21 on
Country Airplay. Also of note, Lady Antebellum’s ‘Downtown’ is hanging on in
there in the top ten, at #7 on Country Airplay and Hot Country Songs, and
dropping down to #10 on Country Digital Songs. Their fourth album, ‘Golden’,
has just been released this week and will impact the chart from next week. Also
to impact next week include the Pistol Annies with ‘Annie Up’, and ABC’s ‘Nashville’
soundtrack, volume 2.

New releases include ‘Hey Girl’ from Billy Currington, at #9
on Country Digital Songs, as well as ‘Trouble’ the new album from Randy Rogers
Band at #3, and ‘Rose Queen’ by William Clark Green, #34 on Top Country Albums.
After George Jones’ passing, his album ‘The Great LOST Hits’ jumps 16 places to
#35. There is a re-entry from Carrie Underwood’s new single ‘See You Again’,
which being so new is struggling to match the chart power of her previous
singles.
